British Science Week Planning Great Resource Primary School All Years year 4 esp
If you are thinking of running a Science week, this is for you.
A plan on how to have a whole week of Science for all Primary years.
Great hyperlinks and you can adapt for your school.
This will save you a lot of time.
I have great Science units. Please have a look.
Science Week
Why are we running the event?
For fun and to motivate children and staff
Raise the profile of science
Inform parents
Encourage involvement in science
Celebrate the science of the school
Raise awareness of practical science activities related to the national curriculum.
Promote outdoor learning
When and for how long will the event be?
Science week will take place during afternoon sessions from Monday 10th June – Friday 14th June, but any links to morning sessions of Numeracy or Literacy are encouraged!
What will the theme of the event be?
INVENTIONS AND DISCOVERY
Inventions are important factors in our everyday lives. Children need to understand that without people thinking of better ways to do things, or making contraptions to make work easier, life would be much different for us today and in the future!
Discovery This part of our theme will allow children the opportunity to answer ‘what if?’ questions! Discoveries are something new! Something we didn’t know about before. So they are, of course, important because they bring something new into society; it could be new knowledge, a new invention, a new scientific concept, a new idea, anything!!
Possible Activities:
• Demonstrations/hands on workshops for children
• Challenges for the children to tackle at home or in school
• Outdoor learning – Encourage opportunities for outdoor learning
• Enquiry investigations
Children are given an opportunity to focus on a full scale enquiry, without the worries of teaching, but the emphasis is on being a scientist, and enquiring.
• Quizzes
Paper based quiz for children to research at school or at home or a treasure hunt around school to find the quiz questions, with answers appearing later.
• Problem solving activities
Using science knowledge to overcome a problem
• Displays
Display photos of activities as they take place. Where possible create interactive displays in common areas that all children can explore.
• Joint planning
Year groups can plan joint activities that link with science topics.

Science Interdependence Adaptation Food Chains Planning Year 5 and 6
Massive amount of planning.
Over a dozen powerpoints.
More than six documents.
More than a dozen word documents.
Example planning :
Pose the question – when we go into the supermarket, how can you find the things you want to buy?
Lead into a discussion about how similar things are put together. If you want apples, you go to the fruit and veg section; if you want ice cream you go to the freezer. It saves time and makes the shopping easier.
Scientists do a similar thing with living organisms. There are so many varied plants and animals, scientists need to keep dividing them into smaller groups to identify them.
How would they do this? What would they look for?
Explain that they look for similarities and differences to put the plants and animals into groups.
Explain that we talk about the ‘plant kingdom’ and the ‘animal kingdom’.
Animal Kingdom – how many different species of animals do the children think are on Earth? Take estimates.
800 000
They can be broadly broken into Vertebrates and Invertebrates.
Vertebrates have a backbone.
Invertebrates do not.
What group do humans fit into?
Activity One
Use PowerPoint to talk through each group and their characteristics.

Religion Story of the People of God Lots of Planning Catholic Flavour
Lots of great planning.
The unit covers:
Start to understand the structure of the Bible.
Research some different styles of writing found in the Bible.
Discuss some of the important figures in the OT and understand why and how they had a special relationship with God.
Analyse The story of the fall.
Know the story of Cain and Abel.
Relate the story to our relationships with friends and family.
Know the story of Manna from Heaven. (Exodus 16: 1-18)
Understand why God provided for the needs of his people.
Empathise with all involved.
Explain how we can show our love for God through our obedience of the ten commandments.
Sample planning :
Introduce the new unit to the children and explain that, through this five week unit of RE, we will be learning about some of the different styles of literature found in the Bible. We will also be learning about some significant people from the Old Testament and their relationship with God.
Introduce the LO.
Display the word ‘ancestors’ on the board and children to TTYP and discuss the meaning of the word.
Take feedback from class.
Share meaning and address any misconceptions.
Children to think about stories that they know about their family and the ancestors that went before them. Talk about people who research their family tree – they are researching their ancestors. The people who came before them. Discuss the program ‘Who do you think you are?’ on BBC 1. Show the opening credits http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCeWuSgiqHI
Discuss the title of the program. Don’t these celebrities already know who they are? They know their own names, their dates of birth, their parents’ names: what else are they looking for?
Discuss how a knowledge of where we have come from, might help us to understand or plan where we need to go to.
Bring this back to the Bible. The Bible is a library of books which gives us information about our ancestors – the people of God.
Explain to the children that the Bible contains the story of the Jewish people in the Old Testament and is the foundation of the story of the Christian people in the New Testament.
Revise work from Year 4 about the Bible being a library of books rather than just one book. (Use the ‘books of the Bible’ slide on PPT). Ch to count up how many books in the Bible – 39 in OT, 27 in NT – 66 in total

Grammar Teaching Materials Powerpoints Teaching Materials Worksheets
Gathered together all my Grammar teaching materials from Primary school.
The zip contains them all. Over 170 mb of stuff.
I’ve included a few examples in the ordinary upload so you can look.
sample:
Start by reviewing homework and making a list for the working wall.
Define each type of word: Noun, adjective, verb and adverb. Build up a sentence as we go.
Show the children a picture on the whiteboard of a horse galloping and of a lightning bolt. Children to write down 3 (LA) or 5(MA and HA) important nouns from the picture. Share. On the left of the noun, children to write an adjective to modify or describe the noun. Share. After the noun, children to write a verb and then an adverb to qualify the verb.
e.g. The black horse galloped elegantly along the beach.
Children to have 5 minutes to read and digest their new writing target. Ask any questions if necessary.
Praise the children on yesterday’s literacy work – they showed knowledge of the function of nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs (HA showed knowledge of the difference between common, proper and pro nouns).
Children to name a range of punctuation – I record on the board (I do not add to it at this point).
Ask volunteers to illustrate uses of the punctuation named. Look on the punctuation pyramid – have we named any L5 punctuation? This is what we should be aiming at all the time.
Children to have a variety of sentences to up level punctuation on their whiteboards.
Come back to ‘The Mysteries of Harris Burdick’. Read through all of the captions and talk about ‘reading’ the illustration. Allow children time to talk about the ‘mystery’ – what do they think happened to Harris Burdick?
Choose a picture from ‘The Mysteries…’ and list all of the questions which it provokes. What do children think of the pictures? Do the captions answer any of the questions?
Talk about the settings in the pictures – often they are recognisable, familiar settings where things are not as they seem. Explain that we would call this ‘Stories in a familiar setting’.
Model the task.

SEAL PSHE Year 5 and 6 Planning Well Being Week Multi Faith Anti Bullying
Did a lot of work in my career with year 5 and 6 in the aspect of PSHE SEAL etc.
Gathered together my planning.
Some good powerpoints in here.

Well being week covers the whole school too.
Topics tackeld include :
healthy eating
feelings
new beginnings
getting on and falling out
going for goals
relationships
problem solving
going for goals
sample planning
Objectives
• I know that my relationships are all different and that different ways of
behaving are appropriate to different types of relationships.
• I can accept and appreciate people’s friendship and try not to demand
more than they are able or wish to give.
Activities
Ask the children to think of as many different friends as they can (in and out of
school), then to think about the following questions for a few moments, then to
share their thoughts in pairs for 2 minutes.
Do you like all your friends in the same way?
• Do you like doing the same thing with all of your friends?
• Do you tend to see some friends only in certain situations?
• Would you want to see all of your friends all the time?
Take feedback, and hold these ideas. Teacher to demonstrate Levels of Friendship circles on the board, starting in the centre with close friends and family, second circle –good friends/cousins etc, third circle, third circle –people in school/relatives you see rarely, fourth circle –people who are acquaintances or know slightly –postman, doctor etc.
Give out copies of the Levels of friendship resource sheet and ask children to
complete the sheet for themselves. They will not need to share it with anyone.
Plenary
When the children have finished, or the allocated time has elapsed, facilitate a brief discussion as a class, drawing out the point that we all tend to have friendships at different levels, and this is OK. We do not want to be best friends with all of our friends. Some of us have many friends, some prefer to have one close friend.
Outcomes
Children will recognise the different relationships that they have with people that they know, and recognise that these differing relationships are fine to have.

Short Christmas Play Ideal for Assembly The Story of Christmas Year 4 Assembly
A nice play for a Christmas assembly.
About 12 pages.
Sample :
Part 1:
KIRA - Narrator 1: The time leading up to Christmas is a busy one, and sometimes we can forget what the message of good news it brings. We would like you to imagine that this good news event is being broadcast to you today, live!
EMILY - Narrator 2: Our report, and the beginning of Christianity, is set in Nazareth. In the town, Jewish families were living under Roman occupation. These families had become poor due to King Herod’s heavy taxes. Nearly all the money the Jews earned went to Herod and the Romans so that they could afford new weapons and lovely food and clothes.
RICKY - Narrator 3: In the town lived a very religious Jewish family: the daughter of this family was called Mary. When Mary was about 14 years old she became engaged to Joseph, a talented carpenter.
SONG: Nazareth (NATIVITY) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNDcWruJ4IY
Things are really cool in Nazareth.
Our city is full of joy,
Cause this is where girl meets boy.
Barely had a school in Nazareth.
There they join hand in hand,
side by side, they will stand.
A wedding is being planned.
Here in Nazareth.
Nazareth our place to live.
Always willing to forgive.
Nazareth will bring us well.
We can hear those wedding bells.
Feeling in a fix in Nazareth.
Rules are to be obeyed,
Arrangements are being made.
Got to get your kicks in Nazareth
Baby, you’ll run away
Start at a brand new day
Still we can not betray
Good old Nazareth.”

ASHTON - Newsreader 1: Hello. And welcome to this breaking news update. We begin our report with the news of wedding preparations that are under way for Mary and Joseph who are pledged to be married. Tonight, however, Mary was woken from a deep sleep by a gentle voice.
